This paper focused on the efficiency of carbon nitride nanotubes functionalized with alanine amino acid (f-CNNTs) in thiotepa (TPA) anti-cancerous drug delivery via density functional theory (DFT). Pristine CNNTs were incorporated for comparison. TPA was found to spontaneously undergo exothermic adsorption onto the nanostructures.

- Paeonia lactiflora 'Hangshao' is a traditional Chinese medicinal plant with valuable seed oil, but the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids in its seeds is still not well understood, prompting a transcriptome analysis to uncover the molecular mechanisms involved.
- During seed development, five main fatty acids were identified, showing varying levels of concentration, and a total of 150,156 unigenes were sequenced, with 1,480 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) detected across various growth stages related to lipid metabolism.
- Key genes implicated in the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids and oil storage were identified, including MCAT, KASIII, and FATA, with their expression
HFE genetic variability and risk of alcoholic liver disease: A meta-analysis.
J Huazhong Univ Sci Technolog Med Sci
October 2016
Studies examining the association of hemochromatosis (HFE) gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to alcoholic liver disease (ALD) yielded inconsistent results. Thus, we performed a metaanalysis to investigate whether the variations in HFE gene increase the risk of ALD. The studies published up to Feb.
